Well, Isle Be Damned

The Isle of Capri-funded arena idea is dead. Get over it.

Plan B just got promoted to the first line.

There's no time left to screw this one up. There is no room for error in trying to fix a seven year procrastination.

This city's failure will be pounced on in a city like Kansas City.

Lemieux has the city/local government over a barrell, and he should.

The first three minutes of the news is arena-related, not "were gonna get gambling in Pittsburgh." Pittsburgh Trib and Post-Gazette covers focus sharply on ARENA, not gambling.

Mayor Luke Ravenstahl and County Executive Dan Onarato have an explosive issue that dominates the news. Luke has an election in four months. Look for Ravenstahl's opponets to add to the debate. This is very messy for the local pols.

Plan B is now the ONLY PLAN, or, the LAST PLAN.
